According to my personal findings and http://www.tacentral.com making some points clear, the Khaldi tribe of Nairi(had many states and tribes) which formed Urartu were our cousins who migrated from the Iron Age migrations that took place around 1200 BC. Here is some more info about this:

"Another migration of Indo-Europeans began in the 12th c BC, at the time of the Trojan War. It concerns the eviction of Thraco-Phrygian tribes (called "foreign settlers") from their native lands by "the People of the Sea" (i.e. early Greeks, Minoans or Mycanaeans). The Thraco-Phrygian moved through the Euphrates into the Armenian Plateau. First inhabiting the land immediately East of the Trojan kingdom in Asia Minor, the Thraco-Phrygians settled on the Western edges of the Armenian plateau and intermingled (that is Urartu, or the Khaldi tribe) with the Haiassa-Aza, further developing Indo-European language, culture and physical features.

One of these people's were the forebears of the Urartians, who spoke a distinct language, perhaps borrowed from Assyria and Babylon, but more likely from the Hittites or later Thraco-Phrygian tribes escaping the war at Troy. "

Urartians had been influenced from the previous Hittite and Armeni-Subarian (Hurrian) ( important note here: Urartians were not "Hurrians, they were "influenced" by these cultures and language, this is where all the confusion is") Mitanni cultures and language. Also, the fact that "Khaldi" keeps appearing in cuneiform writings, as a new name Khaldi, shows that these were our 'cousins' who migrated. As Menua also states the native people of Armeni or Urmeni, in the land of Ari (Aryan land, or Armenian Highlands). So this is where all this confusion of Armenians who migrated comes from. Its our cousins the Khaldi tribe who formed Urartu (the Assyrian record of the kingdom) were the ones who migrated. Armenians or Hay has always been native in the Armenian Highlands, except when they returned back from Sumer.

*Artatama's (Armenian name with 'Arta' prefix) title is "king of the Hurri", yet again reveals the Hurrian-Aryan links (note: not to mention linguists who say Hurrian language is far from complete)

* T. V. Gamkrelidze and V. V. Ivanov, The Early History of Indo-European Languages, Scientific American, March 1990 (they reveal that Armenian Highland and Armenian language is the root of Aryan-IE)

*Tutmoses III of Egypt (1500 BC) mentions the people of 'Ermenen' paying tribute when he held his court at Ninevah, and says that in their land "heaven rests upon its four pillars." (note: Tutmose III was the first Pharaoh to cross the Euphrates to reach the Armenian Highlands)

*Old Persian name 'Armin' meant "dweller of the garden of Eden" (Persians also used this form 'Armin(a)' for Armenia)

*Menua, king of Urartu (our Khaldi tribe cousins) mentions the 'Armeni' native in the "land of Ari" (Ariyan)

*Sumerian inscription 'Haya' as early as 3000 BC way before 'Hayasa' of Hittite inscription 1400 BC

*Akkadian inscriptions from as early as 2400 BC mention the 'Armani' (aka Armani-Subartu or Arme-Shubria or Hurrians) near Lake Van
